Bought three pairs of Goretex running shoes. These were the second runner up. The reason I eliminated these is because of the padding around the ankle. I liked the lighter weight feel of the pair I ended up keeping. I was also concerned that the extra padding would irritate my ankles after wearing them for an extended period of time. From a cosmetic standpoint, I loved the styling, but didn't like the colors as much. Other than the padding, this was a very comfortable shoe with a roomy toe box.

I needed a multi-purpose water resistant comfortable shoe. I did order a half size bigger which was recommended on a previous review. With the additional insert the shoe is soo comfy for my summer garden store job, which is a lot of walking (almost sprinting), standing, etc., The shoe did not require any break-in time. My feet have remained dry except during a downpour.

Need 1/2 bigger and they were out of the next size. I was really bummed because I love the look of the shoes and got a great deal. [...] I selected another style of Vasques. I love Vasques and have full hiking boot that I have enjoyed for years. The trail runners are light weight and great for dayhikes.

These shoes look great, but are not as light as I was hoping. I think that has to do with them being waterproof which is a nice feature. Overall these are great shoes. Also logo is very small. Colors look even better in person.

I love these shoes. This is my 5th pair! Great for running/walking in rocky or gravelly conditions. I normally order size 9.5 but this time I needed a 10. Not sure why. Maybe that's why they were available at such a great price.

I've only worn them a few times, but they are really comfortable with my inserts in and they breathe pretty well for gortex, even in the summer. They have a decent arch support without inserts, but I have a really high arch. Used them for easy hikes at the dog park and they worked well. Looking forward to doing more rugged hiking with them.

I wish I had bought a larger size for downhill hiking- my big toe was sore after a big climb. They will be fantastic as is for trail running or less intense climbing. Feet stayed dry and good traction on wet rocks. great shoes

I fall between 9 and 9 1/2, and ordered these in 9. Probably should have gotten the 9 1/2, but it wasn't available in that size, and I liked the shoes so much I kept them anyway. I think they look better in person than online.
